In this episode, we explore the unique history and culture of two universities located in San Antonio, Texas: St. Mary's University and St. Phillips College. Both institutions have a rich heritage and have been integral parts of the San Antonio community for over a century. We begin by delving into the founding of St. Mary's University in 1852 as a Catholic university, and how it has grown and evolved over time to become one of the leading private institutions in Texas. We also explore the role of St. Phillips University, which was founded in 1898 as a historically black college and has a long history of serving the local community.
One of the most exciting events that both universities participate in is Fiesta San Antonio, a city-wide celebration that takes place every April. We talk about the different events that are part of Fiesta, including the Oyster Bake, a popular tradition that draws thousands of people every year.As we speak alumni, and faculty members from both universities, we gain insight into the unique academic and extracurricular opportunities that are available to students. From innovative research projects to community service initiatives, we learn about the many ways that St. Mary's and St. Phillips are making a difference in San Antonio and beyond.
